Real Healing Doesn’t Start with Words. It Starts with Fire, Coca leaves, and Earth.
You Came to See the Ruins. But First, Let the Old You Burn
Energy cleansing with Qero shaman in Cusco is more than a ritual — it’s a chance to release emotional weight, reset your inner compass, and start fresh before or after visiting Machu Picchu.
Many people come to Peru with a backpack full of dreams. Others carry something heavier — grief, burnout, heartbreak, or a soul that’s just… tired.
You don’t always have the words for it. You just know you need to feel something real.
This isn’t about sightseeing. It’s about releasing.
In the Sacred Valley, just outside of Cusco, there’s a space where that becomes possible — not through talk therapy or guided meditation, but through a ceremony as old as the Andes themselves.
This is energy cleansing with a Q’ero shaman.
And no, you don’t have to hike to 4,000 meters to experience it.
Energy Cleansing with Qero Shaman in Cusco is a private spiritual ceremony led by authentic Qero shamans in the Sacred Valley. Offered by Pie Experiences, it’s perfect before or after visiting Machu Picchu. Sessions include despacho rituals, optional fire or water ceremonies, and are held at Casa Alhaya or Ausangate’s sacred lagoons. Booking is private, respectful, and available in English.

What Is Energy Cleansing with a Qero Shaman?
Travelers come to Peru seeking something deeper than adventure — and find it through Energy Cleansing with Qero Shaman in Cusco, rooted in Inca wisdom.
An energy cleansing ceremony (also called limpieza energética) is a ritual to restore harmony — not just in your body, but in your whole being: physical, emotional, and spiritual.
The Q’eros don’t see healing as “removing bad vibes.” They see it as realigning your relationship with Pachamama (Mother Earth), the Apus (mountain spirits), and yourself.
They don’t heal you. They guide you back to your own clarity.
Who Are the Qero Shamans?
There’s no marketing. No performance. Just Energy Cleansing with Qero Shaman in Cusco — as it’s been done for generations.
They are paqos — spiritual keepers of the old Inca traditions.
They live in small high-altitude communities, deeply connected to the natural and unseen world. Everything they do is rooted in ayni, the sacred law of reciprocity: give, and be given.
When you meet them, they don’t call you “guest” or “tourist.” They call you:
Hermano. Hermana.
Brother. Sister.
Because in their eyes, you already belong.
The Despacho Ritual: Heart of the Cleansing
The heart of the energy cleansing is the Despacho — a traditional offering to Pachamama.
It’s not a show. It’s a prayer.
Your paqo will build the Despacho slowly, with intention. Coca leaves, sugar, flowers, colored wool, seeds, shells. Each item represents something: your pain, your gratitude, your ancestors, your dreams, your blockages, your joy.
As they place each object, they are placing you back into balance.
This is where all the rituals — Fire, Amaru (serpent), Condor, Inca — converge.
The Despacho becomes a mirror of your inner world. When it is complete, it is returned to the Earth — burned, buried, or released into water — to seal the exchange.
You leave lighter. Not because something was removed — but because something was remembered.
This is the heart of your Energy Cleansing with Qero Shaman in Cusco — a ritual that doesn’t require words, only presence.
Where the Ceremony Happens — Low Altitude Option
You don’t have to trek into the high Andes to experience this.
At Casa Alhaya, a sacred space in the heart of the Sacred Valley — just a short drive from Cusco — you can meet with authentic Q’ero paqos and receive your ceremony without the strain of altitude or logistics.
-
Casa Alhaya sits at 2,800 meters / 9,186 feet,
-
while traditional Q’ero communities live above 4,000 meters / 13,123 feet,
-
which can be physically challenging for many travelers.
Surrounded by gardens and mountains, Casa Alhaya is a place where sacredness meets stillness. And it’s perfectly placed on the way to Machu Picchu — ideal for a stop before or after your pilgrimage.
You’ll receive your Energy Cleansing with Qero Shaman in Cusco at Casa Alhaya, a peaceful sacred space in the Sacred Valley.
What Ceremonies Can Be Included?
Every experience is personalized. No two ceremonies are the same. You can receive a single ritual, or combine multiple energies, all woven into your Despacho.
🔥 Fire Ceremony
Burn away old thoughts, habits, and emotions.
Let go of what you’re done carrying.
🐍 Amaru Ceremony (Serpent)
Shed your skin.
Begin again.
This is for deep emotional transformation.
🕊 Condor Ceremony
See your life from above.
Find vision. Connect with the spirit world.
☀️ Inca Ceremony (Sun Ritual)
Call in clarity, strength, and masculine energy.
Perfect for decision-making and life shifts.
At the center of it all is the Despacho — the unifying ritual where it all flows together.

Why Travelers Choose This Cleansing
You’ve booked your train. Packed your hiking boots. Charged your phone for a hundred photos of Machu Picchu.
But here’s something no one tells you:
You can’t show up to a place that sacred carrying the same baggage you brought from home.
Machu Picchu is not just a postcard. It’s a portal.
And when you go up there full of stress, heartbreak, burnout, or mind noise, you miss it.
Not physically — you’ll still walk the ruins. But spiritually? You won’t land.
That’s why the Q’eros say:
Clean before you climb. Or clean after the mountain breaks you open. But clean.
And you don’t need to trek to some remote village at 13,000 feet to do it.
At Casa Alhaya, in the heart of the Sacred Valley — a peaceful place at just 9,186 feet (2,800 meters) — you can meet your Q’ero shaman, release what no longer belongs, and reconnect with the part of you that Machu Picchu is waiting to meet.
The you that’s ready. Present. Empty of noise. Full of meaning.
So don’t skip it. Don’t rush it. Don’t say, “maybe next time.”
Do the ceremony.
Burn the old story.
Step onto the Inca Trail with your heart wide open — or come back from the ruins and make sense of what shook loose.
Because the real trip… starts within.
